Poor old North. Can things get much worse for them?

This funny tweet sums it up:

Brad Scott @bradscottwhinge

This hospital is a disgrace. The food is disgusting, the bed is flabbergastingly appalling and the nurse won't close my window #getwellbrad

Maybe his days of 'flag flying' are catching up with the ol' Brad Scott Bod. What? Oh yeah, "Flying the flag is just..just... crap. "

If they win the next 4 under Crocker, will Scott get a pink slip?

Flamethrower,

It is an excellent question, and one to which I would be delighted to give an affirmative answer. Crocker's last stint as interim coach at North yielded success, and I was an advocate for him getting the gig ongoing. Brad Scott's withering critique of his team last week is a DIRECT AND UNEQUIVOCAL reflection of his own mismanagement and inadequacies. The last nail in his proverbial coaching coffin was surely hammered by himself following the insipid loss to Hawthorn, with his nonsensical declaration that "flying the flag is just crap ..." I am certain that past Shinboner legends such as Carey, Martyn, King, Archer, Stevens and Schwass just hang their heads in shame at such pacifist drivel.

If Crocker can go 3-1 over the next 4, he should get the job, and even 2-2 should at least rouse the Board and its constituents to make a move. For a financially struggling club like North, the current ineptitude is simply uneconomical and ultimately unsustainable.

During his career, he was pretty good at flying the flag iirc. So yeah, i found this a bit hypocritical. I don't actually mind his pressers, and he is brutally honest. Can't blame him for last week's fade out really.

Yes, great point. Talking the talk and walking the walk are two different things. It is simply yet another indictment on Scott.

He gives false promises, and he just sounds like a disgruntled fan .
That nonsense he dished up last week was comical.
Shaun Atley and Luke McDonald ! Pleeeease
